Trump accepts Qatar's $400M jet as new Air Force One
Trump unveiled a converted Qatari Boeing 747, designated VC-25B and dubbed the 'Bridge' Air Force One, at Joint Base Andrews in Maryland — a $400 million gift that blows past legal limits on unsolicited foreign presents and has drawn sharp ethics criticism. The jet, decked in red, white, dark blue, and gold livery, replaces one of two Boeing 747s that served US presidents for over 30 years.
